Out on a Fantasy Football Limb Volume 14

Dec 6, 2007

I’m going back out on that fantasy football limb. I will pick five players I believe will score more points this week than a higher profile player. The scoring will be 6 points for rushing or receiving TD, 4 points for a passing TD, .1 points per yard for rushing or receiving and .05 points per passing yard. I will also do a Super Stretch Pick where I take a real longshot. First, I’ll recap last week.

Marques Colston over Greg Jennings
Jennings has been a TD machine, but Atlanta’s pass defense is much worse than the Raiders.

Calvin Johnson over Wes Welker
With Roy Williams out the Lions will have to lean heavily on the rookie. I think he responds. Welker will have a hard time finding space against that tough Pittsburgh defense.

SUPER STRETCHFred Jackson over Frank Gore
Fred gets to go off against Miami. Most likely Marshawn Lynch won’t play. Gore faces a tough MN run defense. This one could easily blow up in my face.
